11/9/2016: No more certainties

Do not know what to think, I even less know how a Trump presidency will be. I just read some of the opinion pieces from the New York Times writers, really good. Available here.

And from the New Yorker:

"That he has prevailed, that he has won this election, is a crushing blow to the spirit; it is an event that will likely cast the country into a period of economic, political, and social uncertainty that we cannot yet imagine."

...

"In the coming days, commentators will attempt to normalize this event." 

...

"We will be asked to count on the stability of American institutions, the tendency of even the most radical politicians to rein themselves in when admitted to office."
